Obama Sending Troops to Syria – Really?

-

Roanoke Times, 10-31-2015,
Pg 1, 7: US involvement in Syria escalated

-

-

Obama’s Syria Strategy – In
his own words “he doesn’t have any”.

So let’s continue to hem and
haw and wring our hands as Putin and Iran take over the country and
impose their brand of reality on those who remain.

-

Let’s send in 50 Special
Ops. Soldiers to work with those who are supposedly with us, the folks that Putin’s
planes are bombing every day!

What could possibly go wrong
with that plan?

-

If Obama were an Oncologist
he would talk and walk you down the road until you were Stage-4, then he would
commiserate with you on how bad your situation is and that at this late stage
he can’t do anything for you and he’s so sorry for you!

ClimateGate 4.0

The Republican head of the
House science committee is fighting to obtain documents from the Obama
administration on a controversial global warming study, as the agency that produced
it locks down internal records despite a subpoena.

The report by the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) claims to refute prior studies
showing the rate of global warming had flattened in recent decades.

Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, a
global warming skeptic who questioned the data, issued a subpoena on Oct. 13
for the agency to "compel production of documents and communications
relating to adjustments of historical temperature data."

Jon Stewart’s description of
ClimateGate is required watching for all because we-all are being adversely
impacted by the inconvenient-untruths about man-made climate change.

CNBC The Personification Of The Pravda Media

-

The CNBC “Debate”

“RUBIO: OK. I know the Democrats have the ultimate
Super PAC. It's called the mainstream media
who every single day. And I'll tell you why. Last week, Hillary Clinton went
before a committee. She admitted she had sent e-mails to her family saying,
"Hey, this attack at Benghazi
was caused by Al Qaida-like elements." She spent over a week telling the
families of those victims and the American people that it was because of a
video.And yet the mainstream media is going around saying it was the greatest
week in Hillary Clinton's campaign. It was the week she got exposed as a liar.
It was the week that she got exposed as a liar...But
she has her super PAC helping her out, the American mainstream media.”

-
-
If there is anyone who has doubted that the Mainstream Media
is in fact a propaganda arm of the DNC and the Obama Administration, they
should have had their eyes opened during the so-called CNBC Debate.
Not since Stalin’s Pravda has the media been so totally
enveloped in supporting and aiding and abetting a partisan government entity with their
mantra to: accent the positive and
eliminate the negative!

Andy Parker is not new to
the political-media, having a significant background in Democrat politics.He served on the Martinsville Council and ran
for a seat in the Virginia House of Delegates, well prior to his daughter’s
tragedy.

-

Apparently, he has thrust
himself into the current political campaign by making some very “provocative”
statements in the “social media” to several candidates running for public
office.

-

It’s not clear how this will
help his gun-control agenda, nor is it clear how this will help or detract from
the political fortunes of those he has “targeted”.

-

Clearly, his daughter’s
killer had major mental problems that should be the primary focus of this
“cause-effect” tragedy just as Delegate Craig Deeds son’s attack upon him with
a knife was a mental health tragedy.

Senator Bill Stanley has
reacted by filing a formal complaint with police claiming he was “threatened”.

Based on the alleged
comment; It’s not clear if that is a reasonable and prudent action or how it
may relate to the election that is only five days away.

Perhaps both Parker and
Stanley need to stop, take a deep breath and deescalate this situation in the
best interests of Virginian Gentlemen's civility.

Former (Martinsville) BOS member(Andy Parker)“discloses” plans to run again

Although there has been no
official release, the Martinsville Bulletin is reporting that “it was disclosed
Friday” that Andy Parker will seek election to the Reed Creek District seat on
the Henry County Board of Supervisors. Incumbent Tommy Slaughter says he’s
undecided about seeking another term, but is leaning that way. Parker, who is
61, won the seat in 2003 against Slaughter and then incumbent Mike Seidle.

Parker served one term and
then failed in a bid for the Virginia House of Delegates 16th District again
Don Merricks.

MARTINSVILLE — Andy Parker,
the father of slain WDBJ (Channel 7) journalist Alison Parker, announced
Thursday he was dropping out of the race to regain a seat on the Henry County
Board of Supervisors to focus on his campaign for gun control legislation.

State Sen. Bill Stanley on
Wednesday told police that he had been threatened by Andy Parker, the father of
the Roanoke
reporter fatally shot on live TV in August.A portion of the alleged threat included:

Shopping For A Transgender Friendly Judge

-
Case involves a student who has female parts but wants to
use the boys bathrooms and objects to using available unisex bathrooms.
-
The Editors of The Roanoke Times, The NOW Girls and the ACLU
Team are so enamored with people who have sexual-identity issues that almost
every week we are treated to yet another expose on yet another case they have
found to champion.
-
This is not trivial pursuit!In both Massachusetts
and California
by state law any student can use any bathroom at any time and it’s a violation
of state law for anyone to object or impede them in any way.Who would have thought it would come to this?
Certainly should negate any laws that relate to “exposing
one’s self” shouldn’t it!
-
At any rate, the lawyers for this profoundly confused
student, are out shopping for a transgender friendly judge.Clearly, they will find some, even here in Virginia where we still
have some “Old Testament Laws” on the books.
-
If they have difficulty finding their Friendly Judge in Virginia, they might try to import Detroit’s US District Court Judge Anne Diggs

UN Says Hot Dogs Will Kill You

-
The first two letters of this report raises loud alarm bells
– to wit “UN”.
Yet another study that alleges to have scientifically shown
a “cause vs. effect” relationship between certain meat products and cancer.
Apparently it’s not a “cause vs. effect” scientific study
but yet another statistical analysis showing some very very weak correlations.
In the fine print of page 5: “there’s a confirmed link to
cancer.And even then, the risk is
small.”
This is cause for a major announcement by the UN and major
multiple page spread in “newspapers” with great graphic of a hotdog on page 1?-
The first chapter of every statistics textbook advises
statistical wizards that: Correlation does not prove Causation!"He uses statistics as a drunken man uses lamp-posts... for support rather than illumination." - Andrew Lang (1844-1912)-

In fact one might be surprised at the “very very weak
correlation” in this report.Many people
have concerns about the additives in some processed foods with many suffering
allergic reactions to the nitrates and MSG and other preservatives.

-

These preservatives prolong the shelf-life of some foods,
reduces risk of food diseases and reduces the spoilage of and loss of
foods.These are all important
attributes when feeding the world’s exploding populations, many with very
minimal refrigeration or safe food storage facilities and least able to suffer
food poisoning or spoilage.

-
Perhaps a conspiracy sleuth may read into this report an AGW-Alarmist
subliminal message that raising animals for food is a bad thing because flatulation-methane
is destroying the climate. Let’s stop
the bovine and swine agriculture and just grow chickens and soybeans.
-
A biological view: our eyes are close together and in front
of our heads and we have upper and lower teeth and canines’.Apparently, tens of thousands of years of
evolution caused us to be “meat-eaters”, not grazers!You think?

China warns US after Navy ship passes disputed islands claimed by Beijinghttp://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/10/27/us-navy-to-send-warship-near-disputed-islands-claimed-by-china/?intcmp=hpbt1China's Foreign Ministry reacted angrily Tuesday after a U.S. Navy ship passed within 12 nautical miles of disputed islands in the South China Sea late Monday in an apparent challenge to Beijing's territorial claims in the region--
It seems like yesterday that I was an Artillery Officer in V-Corps
in Germany during a major
action by JFK sending a military unit up the Autobahnfrom West
Germany to Berlin to
challenge the Soviet and East German closing of this major ground link into Berlin.
Weeks before the wall went up I had taken the train into Berlin and observed the
massing of enemy East-Block troops and armor all along the route.
Clearly, this was a major game of poker – and JFK went for
the "raise you and see you" option!

The U. S.
Military Response to the 1960 - 1962 Berlin Crisis
Dr. Donald A. CarterThe U. S.
Army Center of Military Historyhttp://www.archives.gov/research/foreign-policy/cold-war/1961-berlin-crisis/overview/us-military-response.pdf
Around midnight on 18 August 1961, General Clarke alerted
the force that would conduct the probe, the 1st Battle Group, 18th Infantry, 8th
Infantry Division. In order to meet the time schedule established by the
president, he issued orders directly to the battle group commander, Colonel Glover S. Johns Jr. At 0530
the next day, Johns’ force moved out of its home station at Coleman Barracks, Mannheim, Germany,
and proceeded to a bivouac area near the American checkpoint at Helmstedt.
Promptly at 0630, one day later, the first set of vehicles stopped at the
Soviet checkpoint at Marienborn, where the autobahn entered East Germany.
Although the Soviet guards raised perfunctory challenges, that initial convoy, followed
by the rest of the battle group, cleared the checkpoint in a short time and made
a triumphant entry into West Berlin that
afternoon. In full battle gear, the troops paraded through the center of the
city to be reviewed by Vice President Johnson and General Clay.

NYPD Cop KIA – Judge Sorry – But In-sync With De Blazio And Obama

Judicial and executive
decisions have consequences, some are life and death!

-

Manhattan Supreme Court
Justice Patricia Nuñez, clearly a judge in harmony with the views of NYC Mayor De
Blazio and Obama, freed Tyrone Howard despite a history of three felony sale
convictions and the urging of prosecutors in the drug case.Tyrone subsequently shot and killed NYPD
Officer Randolph Holder.

It began when officer
Randolph Holder responded to a "shots fired" call around 8:30 p.m. on
Tuesday night. It ended, police say, 13 minutes later when a career criminal
fired a bullet that entered Holder's forehead and left him dead on an East
Harlem street.

-

The Judge is clearly in-sync
with Obama who is busy releasing 6,000 drug-felons from prison, as we write!

With a vote of 54-45, the US
Senate Democrats killed the Sanctuary City Bill to force US Cities to cooperate
with the Federal Government to hold criminal-illegal-immigrants for ICE.

The bill, S.2146, failed a procedural vote. The measure would have
stripped federal funding for cities and other communities that do not honor
requests from immigration officials to hold criminal illegal aliens in their
jails

-

Kate Steinle was killed by
an illegal-immigrant-criminal in the sanctuary city of San Francisco.That city bears the full responsibility for
not having the killer in custody but they continue with their Sanctuary policy
backed-up by Democrat Councilmen.

Hurricane Patricia Not The Disaster The AGW Alarmists Can Exploit

Hurricane Patricia
designated by the weather wizards as the “strongest hurricane ever recorded”
hit Mexico’s
Pacific coast in a low population density area and then quickly fizzled when it
hit a major mountain range.

-

Several points come to mind:

-There haven’t been “records”
kept for very long, so stating the “biggest ever” is not a very compelling statement
from an earth science perspective.

-

It’s only very recent “history” that airplanes
have been flying through the “eye of the storm” to record the data that is
being espoused as “biggest ever”.

-

Had Patricia hit a “target
rich environment” CNN and friends would have had a field-day telling us about
the disasters of man-made CO2 and AGW.

Ahmed Mohamed, who earned the nickname “Clock Boy” as well
as a White House invitation from President Obama, is headed to the Gulf nation,
where he has been given a scholarship at the Qatar Foundation for Education,
Science and Community Development. The 14-year-old’s family announced they will
accompany him to the new home, which is a world away from Texas – in more ways than one.

-

“Qatar has harsh Shariah law - stoning for apostasy, lashing
for alcohol, death penalty for homosexuality - and is an absolute monarchy without
even a shred of democracy,” Tim Furnish, who holds a doctorate in Islamic
Studies and served as an Arabic linguist in the U.S. Army, told FoxNews.com.
“The analogy between Texas and Qatar is the
heat. Ahmed should be careful about what he wishes for.”

The “clock” that was taken into a public school, that the
Liberal Media never published but tried to make into a Islamic Phobia incident, looked like this:
